The Glass house is a sad fucking joke!, that myself and the rest of my fellow rate payers will be paying off for years!

Comment on The end… for now. by Lidia

Hi Kerri-Ann…i just stopped by your blog to catch up on what’s happening in your world. I hope you decide to keep the blog… I keep mine for my own selfish purposed of self expression…whether people read it or not, the writing of my thoughts heals me.

I imagine the lack of sleep and proper rest in your life is probably making you feel extra sensitive. I know when I haven’t had just one good night’s rest I’m not my usual self let alone prolonged months…

I was just thinking the other day too about friction in life – and it seems you’ve got a fair bit of it in your corner. I was thinking whether friction (any kind, and not just friction between people) is necessary to bring us to a new place – i.e. does friction makes us reevaluate our lives, decisions etc…

Hope things resolve quickly for you.

Comment on A sleepless baby and sleep deprived mother… by bekaboo

I’m sorry that I don’t have any advice, but it will pass eventually. None of my three were ever sleepers, so I was sleep deprived for years. Eventually, you will just slowly realize you are sleeping more. Hang in there! I had tough love friends who let their little ones cry it out, but mine could throw themselves out of the crib from 10 months old, so I was afraid to let them get that upset. I ended up with the baby in bed with me. I’d roll over to nurse and then fall back asleep with the baby. Not ideal, I know, but I got more sleep than getting all the way up and going to another room.

Hello there Kerri-Ann,
Fancy finding a comment from you on here. Lovely to chat with you.
I read you’ve been having a tough time with Daina and the sleeping pattern. I know what it is like to be sleep deprived. Kieren would give us 2 hours or less between screaming when he was a baby. But he had colic, or as it turned out wheat and bakers yeast allergies. I was breast feeding him so whatever I ate came through to him. When I removed those things from my diet within 2 days I had a new sparkly happy baby. Amazing. There is usually a reason, it is just a matter of finding what it is. I know that doesn’t help, sorry. Just sharing.
Must go.
Stay in touch.
Hugs Jeanette xx

Likewise I have no advice which is probably not what you want to be reading…oh except something just came to me. I remember my cousins giving lukewarm cammomile tea to their babies when they were unsettled. It helped to ease their tummies and their nerves…
